If any one can put the society on the 

 track of the villain he will be doing a 

 commendalile act. Address in strict 

 confidence, Samuel S. Pennock, Presi- 

 dent, 1614 Ludlow St. It is not the 

 money value. Such skulduggery throws 

 mud on all of us. So it's up to all of 

 us to help remove the stigma by find- 

 ing the malefactor. 



One day later: Through clever 

 sleuth work on the part of E. ,J. Fan- 

 court, the three plants of Golden Em- 

 blem have been recovered — and re- 

 turned to Messrs. Dreer. So the inci- 

 dent that looked like a blot on our 

 trade escutcheon is now- happily 

 closed. We mention no names; but 

 are glad to say that they were not in 

 the trade. 



A well deserved compliment was 

 paid to the floor manager of the show, 

 William Kleinheinz, by the presenta- 

 tion on Saturday night of a pair of 

 gold sleeve links in recognition of his 

 splendid service. For first-class effi- 

 ciency gratuitously contributed, the 

 rose show owed a debt to Mr. Klein- 

 heinz that money could not buy and all 

 that could be done was to show appre- 

 ciation in public approval. 



The Rose Festival did not figure out 

 a financial profit; on the contrary 

 there will be a moderate deficit. But 

 there was no space available for 

 trade displays and consequently this 

 source of revenue was not possible. 

 Had it been so, the undertaking would 

 unquestionably have been a money 

 making proposition. The total at- 

 tendance was over 28,000. In addi- 

 tion to the officers listed as elected, 

 in our issue of last week, members 

 of the executive committee were 

 chosen as follows: George C. Thomas, 

 of Philadelphia: Aaron Ward, of Ros- 

 lyn, N. Y.; Jesse A. Curry, of Portland, 

 Ore.; W. J. Keimel, of Chicago, and 

 John H. Dunlop, of Richmond Hill, 

 Ontario, Canada.
